Wary and Racy 5.5, released March 3, 2013
Racy 5.5. Another bug :
Save http://launchpadlibrarian.net/13579707/N9Y4AAAAMAAJ.pdf
Open that pdf file with epdfview from shell.
And takes 60% CPU to go to the next page.
See https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15629
epdfview is not developped anymore ? http://trac.emma-soft.com/epdfview/ down.
Any better pdf reader ?
Save http://launchpadlibrarian.net/13579707/N9Y4AAAAMAAJ.pdf

So why didnt you report it here ?rcrsn51 wrote:The problem isn't with epdfview - it's with the version of libpoppler that it uses.
I didn't check Racy, but Wary 5.5 uses the very old libpoppler-7 and shows the same symptoms as you reported.
However, Slacko 5.5 uses libpoppler-26 and handles your test PDF fine.
linuxcbon & rcrsn51,
I can confirm that: all the console pdfto* utilities are of no use because the libpoppler.so.19 library is not there.
Working on it now.

Ok, here's a freshly compiled drop-in replacement for whatever poppler-ish material exists in wary 5.5 (untried in racy 5.5). This means it should replace all the pdfto*, pdfinfo, etc., utilities and the corresponding libraries. This version, poppler-0.22.2 is dated March 11, 2013 (10 days ago). It contains the executables and the corresponding libraries.
Please download from : http://limelinx.com/c617i Should you wish to preview the contents, a directory and file listing of this *.pet archive is attached below in g'zipped text format.

Enjoy!

Yes, I use it all the time.Dillo is fast but not complete, no javascript and no css float.
Did you try it at http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=52534

Re: skype problem
In wary 5.5 I use successfully skype 2.2.0.35. You can download the tar.bz2 archive from my shared link:EgyB wrote:Can someone help me?
I run racy 5.5 from usb stick.
I install skype 2.1 over install puppy package.
When I log in skype it won't work. Just freeze and keep skype logo (arrow which go in circle) running, but nothing else...
http://www.4shared.com/file/StyW-ofz/sk ... 35tar.html
Click on the archive, select all and extract to /usr/local. Then copy in /usr/bin the binary skype from the directory you extracted. From /usr/bin you can create a link to the desktop or launch "skype" in console. I have to say that I install from puppy3 repository qt 3.3.8 but I don't know if it is necessary.
I am not seeing a problem with libpoppler in Wary 5.5. All of the pdfto* tools work correctly.musher0 wrote:I can confirm that: all the console pdfto* utilities are of no use because the libpoppler.so.19 library is not there.
I believe that the only issue here is updating libpoppler to handle linuxcbon's particular PDF file. All you need are:
Code: Select all
libpoppler-glib.so.8 -> libpoppler-glib.so.8.6.0
libpoppler.so.35 -> libpoppler.so.35.0.0
Barry, for privacy, can you do this ? = avoiding cookies from flashplayer
Code: Select all
rm -r /root/.adobe/
rm -r /root/.macromedia/
ln -s /dev/null /root/.adobe
ln -s /dev/null /root/.macromedia
Doesn't load in zathura either, but in foxitreader, it's ok.rcrsn51 wrote:I am not seeing a problem with libpoppler in Wary 5.5. All of the pdfto* tools work correctly.musher0 wrote:I can confirm that: all the console pdfto* utilities are of no use because the libpoppler.so.19 library is not there.

to be on the safe side, should I run these commands before remastering *any* puppy? No side effects?
Concerning the pdf issue, I informed Pemasu that his precise
3.8.3.1 and his wheezy 3.5.2.5 also have problems. I thought his
reply was interesting:
http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic. ... af26825c52
To get a working reference that handles the graphical illustrations
ok he used Google chrome browser instead of slacko.

You can add these ones too :

mkdir /root/.local/share/recently-used.xbel

sfs and desktop icons
sfs and desktop icons
If I re-arrange desktop icons, then add an sfs like devx_racy_5.5.sfs, and reboot... the desktop icons are messed up.
Is there a way to prevent that, to keep my desktop icons order?

Hi Barry,
The Service Pack for Wary 5.5 does not show the version update to 5.5.1 in DISTRO_SPECS and therefore HardInfo does not report the update either. While I can edit DISTRO_SPECS to reflect the version update, the change is not permanent, but session specific only. I am wondering if there is a bug in the pinstall.sh script?
Also, while running Pupmode 13 I am noticing that sometimes my mounted flash drive is reported as: sdb1 and following a re-boot it is reported as: sdc1 Note that I have two flash drives plugged in all the time and at same location, but I am not sure why the drive labels are changing intermittently... maybe a timing issue with hardware detection?
Thanks,
Monsie

I'm reporting what I guess is a bug. It seems the HP 210-1010NR touchpad just doesn't want to allow right click. I have tried many things to get it working and still doesn't work on Precise and Racy 5.5
See this thread for what I have personally tried (maybe something I tried could end up working if someone with more knowledge in this could try it):
